You far right nutcases would certainly have called him a coward, soft on terrorism, a tratior to his country, anti-war, a friend of the enemy. What will you call your own Senate Majority Leader for saying this?
Senate Majority Leader Bill Frist, who was traveling in Afghanistan, said Monday that Taliban fighters were too numerous and too popular to be defeated. "You need to bring them into a more transparent, leadership type of government," he said. "And if that's accomplished, we'll be successful."
(House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi, D-Calif., said after the Sept. 11 terrorist attacks, the United States went to war in Afghanistan to defeat the Taliban for its role with al-Qaida.
"Senator Frist now suggests that the best way forward in Afghanistan is to coddle the Taliban by welcoming Taliban members into a coalition government, as if 9/11 had never happened," Pelosi said Tuesday in a statement.)
INTERESTING TURN OF EVENTS, ISN'T THIS?
